Kaleidoscope
kaleidoscope
The wrinkles of youth were playing
in the garden of adolescence
where stubborn roots make their way through infinite bouquets
of blades of grass
piercing the innocence of the horizon
wandering hearts
that have bled before
meet in this verdure
to bleed together
while we wait for a boat on the shore of a lake
on the shore of life
to come retrieve yesterday’s dew
because the unspoken’s remains
dwell in us
dismantle us
at every quiver of the waves
at every shiver of the waves
pieces of faith bloom
only to fade
when will the flower skim the greenery?

the river
Let’s go down the river
treachery
the liquid flows
ever so rapidly
this undefined blur
screams imperishably
let’s flee down the river
perhaps die hastily

whisper
Stolen flowers from the cemetery
answer sorrow’s questions
as the thin plumage of reality wearies.

vacant soul
Suffocating in between four walls
empty
But inside me breathes
an untamed waterfall
clemency
in a timeless room
waiting to pull the trigger
around noon
children scream
stuck in a dark daydream
pills flow out the cracks of the door
while I am dead, suspiring on the floor.

a vision
Bankrupt fingers abrade lonesome chalkboards. Maimed hearts are stolen by an ephemeral breeze. Wounded minds meditate upon the adrift boats of the past.
Then, thoughts disembogue, and everything around you stealthily disappears.

je me noie, je m’étouffe
Je me suis enterrée hier
je ne sais pas pourquoi
je voulais que les ombres s’allongent sur la terre
répondent aux questions
dans leurs nuages sournois
les plaies dénudent ma peau
le cercueil me caresse
me dit qu’il est trop tôt
de noyer l’allégresse
des chapitres brumeux
racontent l’innocence
dansent avec l’inconscience
d’une simple apparence
dans ce cercueil, je meurs
en douceur
en peur
je m’ennuie
